Subject line says it. I had problems installing lme4.

1. The dependency on package Matrix was not resolved (I am not sure that this is
really a bug; but it is annoying, anyway).

2. Installing Matrix failed with a message saying something like "no rule for
%_D.o"
after compiling a lot of sources and combining them into an archive. I traced
this down to a Linuxism. I found the string _D.o in subdirectory taucs of
Matrix. Forcing GNU make by adding MAKE=gmake to the environment of R installed
the package successfully. I consider this a real non-portability bug.
